July 4th Celebrations and Campaigning
The George Sneed for State Senate 35 campaign got off to an early start on July 4th at 10:00 a.m.. We participated in the Douglasville July 4th parade. It was a great event in which thousands of citizens came out to celebrate America's birthday. Our campaign was well represented with numerous volunteers and supporters. We had a convertible corvette owned and driven by supporter Richard Jones of the Emerald Point community and my wife drove our SUV. Both vehicles were decorated with "We Need Sneed" signs, and campaign volunteers were adorned in campaign tshirts and armed with flyers and business cards. We walked the parade route and also entered the crowds, behind the ropes, spreading our campaign message of leadership, common sense government, and accessibility. Even my oldest daughter Chloe Summer joined me in the streets to help reach voters. Spectators loved her smile and enthusiasm. George and Venessa Sims participated along with their three children. The parade route was approximately 1.5 miles which began on Fairburn Road and ended near City Hall.
Our campaign efforts continued at 4:00p.m. when we set up a boothe at the East Point Main Street Association's July 4th celebration. This was an event that is attended by more than 10,000 citizens from East Point and the South Fulton area. Our campaign was the only one from Senate District 35 represented with a campaign boothe presence. Hundreds of voters came by to visit with us or collect information about our campaign and my plans for leading District 35. The event also featured numerous other artists and food vendors. Music was provided by live bands and a local radio station. There were also East Point mayoral candidates and city council candidates present. There was enteratainment, food, and fun for all ages. Our campaign took this opportunity to network with other candidates and have one on one discussions with everyday voters. We spread our campaign message and informed voters of the fall election on November 3, 2009.
